It is clear from the statements of Republican President Donald Trump and his allies after the announcement of the victory of Democrat candidate Joe Biden on Saturday that they are not likely to accept defeat soon.
Republicans are trying to raise 60 million to fight the election, Reuters reported Sunday.
For months now, Donald Trump has been talking about election fraud and conspiracy. Earlier, he had said more than once that he would not hand over power peacefully. On Saturday, he vowed to continue the legal battle again.
However, there has been some disagreement between Trump's allies and Republican friends over the exact process of legal action, but most have backed or remained silent.
In a statement issued after Biden was declared the winner on Saturday, Trump said: "It's very simple, it's too late for the election to end. Joe Biden has not been certified as a state winner. Compulsory voting will be recounted in many states.
Trump's aides and advisers say Trump is unlikely to overturn the election results and stay in the White House.
Trump's allies have called for the legal process to continue as he prepares to leave the White House.
One adviser said, ‘If he (Trump) wants to recount the votes, he should accept it. His demands must be taken into account and if there is no change after that, he should accept the results. '
Trump's campaign camp and Republicans have filed numerous lawsuits in several U.S. states alleging election irregularities. Judges are working on the cases in Georgia, Michigan and Nevada.
Judges in Pennsylvania have ruled in favor of the Republicans. They have ordered the separation of a few temporary ballots. In addition, Republicans have given observers more opportunities to observe during the vote count.
Legal experts say such legal challenges will have little effect on the outcome of the election.
Trump, meanwhile, has called for a halt to vote counting in some states over allegations of fraud.
"Trump should be in favor of counting every vote and demanding transparency in the election," said a former White House official. That will give him a solid democratic foundation. "
